As one of the most recognizable landmarks on campus, the Quad has been the first destination for many Penn first years since 1895. Students living in the Quad are grouped into three college houses: Fisher-Hassenfeld College House, Ware College House, and Riepe College House. Known for providing the “first-year experience,” these college houses may be the perfect place for those looking to explore the social scene at Penn. The Quad will soon undergo a $200 million renovation, which is expected to be completed by 2027.
